A Dried Lavender Sachet Near the Pillow

A small cotton sachet of dried lavender on the bedside table for its gentle scent. A fragrance comfort; skip if the smell gives you a headache.

A soft scent for the bedside

Lavender has a calm, fresh, floral scent that many people associate with bedtime. A small sachet of dried buds next to the pillow gives a gentle fragrance without any smoke or oil.

Keep the sachet on the bedside table or under the pillowcase edge, away from your face, and refresh it every few weeks. This is a scent comfort and not a treatment for insomnia.
